Olympic Pride

Yesterday I took the children for a bus trip into town. P loves taking the bus, we always play I spy with colours on the way and usually she will have the other passengers laughing after she repeats spying the same thing over and over again. Once in town I took them to the library where there was a themed play event running for children 4+ and what better it was free. I love a bargain!!!

P stripped her coat off straight away and got stuck in, first of all we helped build something for the Olympic village which started off as a large sheet of mdf sitting on top of a table. Around the table the children were deeply concentrating on buildings and swimming pools for the village and without saying a word P started to cut materials and sticks bits together. By the time she was half way through she announced that she was making a life guard stand to the staff that were walking around and then moved onto add a feather as the chairs back and a few stars for decoration. P placed her lifeguard chair next to the swimming pool another child had built and proudly added her name.

Afterward P ran over to design her own sports outfit, I must say you wouldnt miss her coming in this! After ward we spent ages making a gymlastics medal. P loves gymlastics and starts again this term, she is desperate to learn how to do a backwards roll and she was very happy with her winning medal. Im not sure whether you can work it out but P is in the middle and above her are the balloons to celebrate her great gymlastics.
